TRUE MERIT.

We wish to say to every one interested
in clothes washing that the futile cOmbi-
nation steam washer is an article of true
MERIT that it is, without question, the
only complete family washing machine
ever known. 1t clenses the finest lace or
coarsest article of washing perfectly and
without injury. The machine is easily
wOrked-a child ten years old being cap
able of operating it, and will do wash
ing in two hours that requires u hard
day labor at the wash tub. The steam
washer is universally known as the only
true washer. The futile steam washer
is of late origin, and an improvement
over all others or it would not have been
granted patent. There has been large
territory disposed of ON the merits of the
Tuttle washer and while there is good
" field remaining unsold we callenge any
one to produce any enterprise with like
amount of investments that will give an
enterprising man the same returns. Ex-
cellent arrangements made with county
agents. To prove our claims for the ma
chine, we would refer you 70 parties who
have used the Tut(le washer in this city
for nearly year, and who speak in high
est terms Of praise for the same, or we
will show or operate the washer at your
homes free of charge. Dodge City is our

THE ARKANSAS, KANSAS &
COLORADO RAILROAD.
WORK ON THE SOUTH SIDE BEGUN.

The grade on the Arkansas. Kansas &
Colorado Raiload was begun on the ives,
line ION the South Side) on Wednesday
Work had begun Tuesday of last week,
on the east end of the first ) miles. The
grade is now under way. beginning near
where the depot buildings are to be To-
Gated. Graders had been camped on the
South Side for several days, giving evi.
dence of an early beginning of the work,
and now as the work has commenced
there seems to be considerable gratifica-
ton.
Weston & Co., architects have COM
pleted the plans of the depot building
The depot will be located on Fourth
street, less than 800 feet west from Bridge
Street.
1t seems quite probable that the cars on
this line will be running into Dodge City
in less than 30 days
The officers and contractors of the A.
X. & G. have fitted up neat office ON the

MANUFACTURERS.

What Dodge City needs is manufactur
ing establishments 1t may be briefly
stated what any town needs is manufac
turtles. But Dodge City enjoys a central
location, and is to become railroad cen
ter. The manufactures that can be con-
Quoted with perfect profit are those that
can find the raw material readily. At
present nothing is more desirable than a
wooden mill. The raw material is easily
and cheaply obtained, and the market for
the manufactured goods can be found at
home and in Colorado and New Mexico.
Our citizens are sufficiently alive to
the importance of helping the establish
ment of manufactures, and we believe
the present occasion an opportune time
in which to agitate the movement.

,.~HE A. X. & G..

The manne. , in which the grading on
the A. X. & C. Railroad is being com
pleted is almost unprecedented in the AL
nails of railroad building.
On last Mond ~ morning befCcre sever
o'clock not plo W had run furrow. o.
a scraper entered the ground Many were
the doubts EXPIRE ssed by the citizens as to
the company going to work on that NOR
ming as so promis ed. True the grading
outfit of Mr. Westenhaven had been
camped at Bucklin for several days, but
this did not dispel the doubts of the most
respondent At the hour to commence
work ON that morning, Mr.. Wcstenhaven
started the plows and scrapers, and in one
short week has received grade upon one
mile of grading out from this city, and
also completed the grade OH the Y, and
is now this Saturday morning, at work
on the adjoining mile to the one just fin
ished, the grading of which will take but
a few days.
We understand that host of teams are
at work between here and Ford City.
Under the direct superintendency of G.
E. Gallagher, this road will be put into
immediate operation.
Bucklin, for the present will be the
southeast terminus. but it is understood
that the road will be pushed on to the
southeast at some future date At the
present time the company will devote its
attention to rushing it into the coal fields
of Colorado. This will give us Trinidad

HOW TO BOOM.

Every one can be boomer. Keep
your money at home. Patronize those
who patronize you. Spend your money
among home institutions, where you
stand good chance to get 1t back. Ev-
cry dollar you spend with a stranger is
gone forever. Every dollar you spend
with home man finds its way back to
your pocket. A dollar spent in some
other town goes to help build up that
town. A dollar spent here goes to help
build up our town. Figure the thing
down fine and you lose money by buying
away from home, even if you get the ar
ticle for one-half what 1t would cost you
at home. Remember this and act ac'
cordingly.

Army surgeons during the late war
found chronic diarrhGa one of the most
obstinate diseases they had to treat.
Thousands of cases proved fatal. and
many soldiers suffering with the disease
were pronounced incurable, and discharg-
ed from the service. Chamberlain ChOl
ic, Cholera and DiarrhGa Remedy was
not known at that time. 1t has proved
to be one of the grandest discoveries ever
made in the history of medical practice.

A WOODEN MILL.

Steps are being taken in this city to
establish wooden mill here. A gentle
man, residing in another city, has a
wooden mill plant that he will transfer
here provided sufficient capital stock is
ness, which amounts to hundreds of thou
sands of dollars every year, and extends
over great extent of country. Imagine
Dodge City with manufacturing estab-
lishment running one thousand men and
shipping a million of dollars of goods
every year. This would be an enlarge
ment to our trade and business greatly
desirable. We hope the wooden mill err
terprise will be taken hold of.

A SUNDAY-SCHOOL PICNIC.

At an early hour, Oct. list, 1886, bug
gies, carriages and wagons were seer
centering at point known as District
No. Al. A new school house has beer
creted at this place, furnished with the
| best furniture, apparatus, well &c. The
choir was giving a choice selection as we
crowded the spacious Enclosure
Prayer was offered by Rev. Wright, of
Cimarron.
The next was a song by the choir, led
by the organist. Miss Lily Beeman.
Our chairman, Mr. Neilan, made the
address of welcome, which was very APP
propriate.
Rev. Wright delivered the dedicatory
address, which contained many deep
thoughts and which was listened to
with great interest.
This was followed by Il song by the
choir, after which we partOOk of splen-
did dinner which was spread upon tables
in an adjoining room.
During dinner we also enjoyed music
